The King Is Gone (So Are You) – Friends and Heroes Session

Last night I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter that looks like Elvis

I soaked the label off a Flintstone's Jelly Bean jar

I cleared us off a place on that one little table that you left us

Then I pulled me up a big ole piece of floor






I pulled the head off Elvis

Filled Fred up to his pelvis

Yabba Dabba Doo

The King is gone, and so are you






'
Round about ten we all got to talkin'

About Graceland, Bedrock and such

The conversation finally turned to women

But they said they didn't get around too much






Elvis said, "Find 'em young"

And Fred said, "Old-fashioned girls are fun"

Yabba Dabba Doo

The King is gone, and so are you






Then later on it finally hit me

That you wouldn't be a-comin' home no more

'
Cause this time I know you won't forgive me

Like all of them other times before






Then I broke Elvis's nose

Pourin' the last drop from his toes

Yabba Dabba Doo

The King is gone, and so are you

Yabba Dabba Doo

The King is gone, and so are you






Last night I broke the seal

On a Jim Beam decanter that looks like Elvis
